What a shame we got to spend time together under such sad circumstances. It is so hard to believe Ellen is not longer with us. Again I am so sorry. My heart goes out to the boys and Sydney and Josh. Also thanks again for the rides when I was in Montreal. Love Karen

Dear family. I am not sure if you remember who I am. I amEllen's "oldest" friend. I am the lady who adopted a little girl from china if you now remember. I met Ellen through Jody and then Chad was in school with Alexa, my daughter. Ellen was a woman full of spunk and fun. She had a wonderful way of making people laugh. Honest and forthright and you knew where you stood with her! My deepest sympathies to the family. I know Ellen's spirit will be with you and guide you and give you all strength to keep going.God bless you all. Fondly Lynne Pronman

Ellen was a special friend, who I shared many memories with. These memories will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart.

To the Cohen family,
My sincerest condolences on Ellen's passing. I met Ellen in the 1990's while we were working on a community fashion show. Although I have not seen her for so many years, I was well aware of her illness and her passing has greatly saddened and touched me.
To her young sons, her parents, Bonnie and Danny, and all her dear friends, may G-d give you the strength and courage to get through this difficult time.

Harold...
Carole and I heard the very sad news of Ellen's passing from Joel...we are not in the country currently. We know that the least year has been particularly difficult and wish you and your family only good things going forward. No one can or wants to imagine the impact of losing a child. It's a reversal of what we expect and of nature's normal 'rules'. Please accept our heartfelt condolences and know that you are in our thoughts.

Dear Bonnie, Danny and family
The loss of a loved one - especially one so young in her prime - is not fair. Be consoled by the fact that Hashem gives and takes. Ellen is in His hands and will find her peace. We send you our love and strength through this difficult time and offer our sincere condolences to the respective families.

I am so grateful to have known Ellen for as long as I did, she was the most special, fun and outgoing person I have ever known. I will miss her dearly and am so happy that I was able to see her on the weekend and spend some special time with her when she was in need. I am so sorry that I will not be there to support you guys tomorrow since I am away, but know for sure that my thoughts are with you. I am so sad for the loss of a very sweet and special person but at least I know she will not be alone. XOXOXOX

Ellen,
It's been a long time since I had seen you but I must say my memories of you are of a fun, loving person. There were a few occasions where you had me in tears from laughing so hard. To Rowen and the rest of Ellen's family, my sincere condolences. What an awful tragedy!!
January 19, 2010
We love you Ellen, I still have visions of you sitting crossed legged on the chair styling wigs. You always had a story to tell us. You were an amazing mother always thinking and worrying about your kids. I am glad I got to see you Friday and you are beautiful.
My condolences to your family and we have lost a beautiful star!

Ellen, you turned to me when you needed some advice, usually about media, and I always looked forward to your bubbliness, your humour, your caring and your positive nature. I am so sorry, and so stunned, that it came to this. I had no idea. To Ellen's many friends, to her family, to her sons, my deepest condolences. We have all lost one of the most unique people we know and it hasn't even fully sunk in yet. What a tragedy... but at the same time, what a life of courage and hope!

Harold - One cannot express in words the loss of a child - especially one as devoted as Ellen .
At this point all one can add is thet " life is for the living " and that her memory and valiant efforts for the value of life may be a beacon of guiding light and strength for you and for her children . On behalf also of my son Jordan as well as from Susan - may you ,Daniel, Donna , Chad ,and Zachary all be spared further sorrow .
